What’s going on FANation? Today’s value could drastically alter if one Anthony Davis were to once again sit out. IF Davis doesn’t play, Dwight Howard and JaVale McGee are two of the more obvious choices in the value tier on the entire slate. So is Rajon Rondo and he’s the only one we have written up here. Just keep that in the back of your mind leading up to roster lock.

FanDuel

Lou Williams , SG LAC -- $5,500

It’s not often we see this price tag for the reigning sixth man of the year, so let’s take advantage shall we? Now he only played 20 minutes after a six-game absence his last time out, but that number should definitely increase and this game environment doesn’t get any better. First and foremost, we have a 235 total and a 119 team total, both slate high’s. Over the past month, the Clippers have played at the fastest pace in the NBA while the Rockets ninth, so this game will be up and down the entire night. Last but definitely not least is the fact that the Rockets have allowed the second MOST fantasy points to opposing shooting-guards.

Alex Len , C ATL -- $4,300

Before his dud against the Knicks, Len had given us some pretty consistent production notching 20-plus FP in six straight contests. The craziest part about the Knicks dud was that was the most minutes he’s seen over his last seven games! Over the last month, Utah has actually been exploitable at the center position allowing the 12th most FP/game to the position on FD at 52.8, a full 1.3 points higher than the league average. If Anthony Davis sits, Len will go overlooked because everyone will be pivoting to Dwight Howard and JaVale McGee .

George Hill , PG MIL -- $4,000

Since Eric Bledsoe went down, Hill’s role hasn’t changed all that much as he’s played 24 and 22 minutes, but he’s very productive when he’s on the floor. He’s given us 22-plus FP in three-of-four and the one in which he didn’t he fell just short of 20, which at his FD price would be considered 5X value. With Eric Bledsoe off the floor this year, Hill has been really strong averaging .93 FP/min and is in a game environment with a 225 total. I’d consider him in all formats on this four-game slate.
 

DraftKings

Rajon Rondo , PG LAL -- $4,800

Rondo has seemingly settled into 25/26 minutes per night, but that’s perfectly fine because he’s given us 26 & 31 FP on DK in each of the last two games. He’s now played 25-plus minutes in five-of-six as well, just to circle back to the beginning sentence. Anthony Davis may potentially sit this one out and without Davis this year, Rondo has averaged 1.3 FP/min this year, which is elite it gets. This also happens to be a HUGE pace up spot for the Lakers as the Bucks are the fastest paced team in the league and LAL ranks 16th, over five possessions slower than MIL. 

DeAndre Jordan , C BKN -- $4,800

Over the last month, the Spurs rank 27th in rebounding and here we have one of the league’s best rebounders over the past decade. Is he going to play more than 25 minutes? Not unless there is foul trouble to Jarrett Allen , but he gets it done during the time he’s on the court. Over his last four games, Jordan has averaged 20.3 minutes and 28.6 FP/game. He’s grabbed double-figure rebounds in three of his last four games while blocking at least one shot in three-of-four as well.

Rudy Gay , SF/PF SA -- $4,700

Gay’s minutes flucuate quite a bit but even in just 21 minutes his last time out he went for 37 FP, grabbing his second straight double-double. Gay did play 32 minutes two games ago against Phoenix, so we have that potential ceiling. The Spurs do NOT play a back-to-back either, so we shouldn’t be concerned about any limitations either. With Gay coming off the bench, he’s the leader of the second unit offensively, which is a huge bonus. On the year, Gay has a 21.3-percent usage rate and averages 1.01 FP/min. This feels like a game we could get 25-plus minutes out of him.
